Abstract

Displacement measuring interferometers (DMI) are disclosed for use in conjunction with apparatus for measuring and monitoring the intrinsic optical properties of the gas in the measurement leg of a DMI to compensate for variations in the refractive index of the gas that would otherwise render subsequent displacement calculations less accurate. The DMIs may be used for either linear or angular displacements. Cyclic error compensation, wavelength monitoring and correction, and phase redundancy features are included to further enhance the accuracy with which displacement determinations may be made and are particularly suitable for use in photolithographic applications.

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION This invention is printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economics. This invention is generally related to photometry, and particularly to interferometer displacement measurement, and is not affected by the optical path length of the refractive index of the gas in the measurement path, including the refractive index. Impact of fluctuations. A problem often encountered in precision interferometers is the need to have accurate knowledge about the refractive index of the gas in the measurement path and / or the optical path length of the measurement path due to the change in gas. This is especially the case when gas fluctuates, such as gas disturbances, and / or the physical length of the measuring path changes. The precise information about the refractive index and its influence on the change of the optical path can be used to correct errors caused by these effects in determining the physical displacement of length and angle. 4 This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification ( 210 X 297 mm) 477895 A7 _____B7 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs 5. The invention description (2) Poor. There are several techniques for measuring this refractive index in a highly controlled environment, such as when an air column is contained in a sample cell and the temperature, pressure, and physical size are monitored. However, measuring the refractive index without control is a technical challenge, especially if a high degree of accuracy is required. Or, the most difficult measurement of the refractive index of air is to measure the refractive index on an unknown or variable length path with uncontrolled temperature and pressure. This situation often occurs in highly accurate distance-measuring interferometers, such as in microplate manufacturing for integrated circuits. For example, read an article by N. Bobroff, "Residual errors caused by air disturbances and nonlinearities in laser interferometers", Applied Optics, 26 (13), 2676-2687 (1987), and also N. Bobroff One of the papers "Recent advances in displacement measurement interferometers" measures science and technology, 4 (9), 907-926 (1993). As is known, interferometer displacement measurements in air accept environmental uncertainty, especially Changes in air pressure and temperature; uncertainties in air composition, such as caused by changes in humidity; and the noise of air disturbances. These factors change the wavelength of the light used to measure the displacement. Under normal circumstances, the refractive index of air is about 1.03, with a range of 1 X 1 0-5 to 1 X 10-4 levels. However, in many applications, it is necessary to know the relative accuracy of the refractive index of air to less than 0.1 ppm (parts per million) to 0.003 ppm, which is equivalent to one meter of interferometer displacement measurement. Displacement measurement accuracy of 100 nm and 3 nm. (Please read the precautions on the back before filling out this page) One Pack ---- Order --- s'. This paper size applies to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 477895 A7 _ B7 5 3. Description of the invention (3) One method for detecting the fluctuation of the refractive index is to measure the change in pressure and temperature on a measuring path, and calculate the effect on the optical path length of the measuring path. The mathematical equation used to perform this calculation was published in an article by F. EJones entitled "Refractive Index of Air", J. Res. NBSB86 (l), 27-32 (1981). The implementation of this technique was published in an article by W.T.Esler entitled "Highly accurate displacement interferometer in air", Applied Optics 24 (6), 808-8 1 5 (19 8 5). Unfortunately, this technology only provides close to 値, troublesome ′ and only corrects for the slowness of air density and global fluctuations. Another more direct method of detecting the effect of refractive index on fluctuations in the path is to use a multi-wavelength distance measurement method. The basic principle can be obtained from the following. Interferometers and laser radars measure a datum and the length of an optical path between objects, most often in open air. This optical path length is the integral product of the refractive index and the physical path traversed by the measuring beam. Since the refractive index varies with the wavelength, but the physical path is not affected by the wavelength, the physical path length is usually determined by the optical path length. In particular, the contribution of fluctuations in the refractive index, assuming that the tool uses at least two wavelengths, and that the essential optical properties of the gas are known. Since the refractive index changes with wavelength in this art is called dispersion, this technique is often called dispersion technique. The dispersion technique used for refractive index measurement has a long history in short-distance optical interference phase detection. In 1972, US Patent No. 3,6 4 7,3,02 to RB Zιριη and JT Zaiusky, entitled "Apparatus and method for obtaining accurate amplitude measurement", published an interferometer displacement measurement system using multiple wavelengths To compensate for environmental conditions such as changes in temperature, pressure, and humidity.

Description of the invention (4) Length of the physical path On the object. However, the phase detection devices of Z i p i η and Za I u sk y do not appear to be sufficiently accurate in terms of highly accurate measurements. A recent attempt on microplate-making highly accurate interferometers is represented by US Patent No. 4,9 4 8, 2 5 4 issued to A. / I sh h 1 d a (19 9 0). A similar device was described by Ishida in a paper entitled "Two Wavelength Displacement Interferometers Using Second Harmonic Light to Eliminate Errors Caused by Air Disturbances", Japanese Journal of Applied Physics, 28 (3), L473 — 475 (1989). In this article, a displacement measurement interferometer is published, which eliminates errors caused by fluctuations in refractive index by a two-wavelength dispersion detection method. In US Pat. No. 5,404,222, issued to 3. 丄 18 (1 995), entitled "Interferometry System with Compensation for Air Disturbance", a two-wavelength interferometer is used to detect and detect Compensate for refractive index fluctuations. A similar device is described in a paper by L is entitled "Interferometer for compensation of air disturbances for IC manufacturing", SPIE 2 4 4 0 (1 9 9 5). However, two Isluda and Lis rely on the external supply related occupation From the above, it is clear that the reciprocal of gas and the dispersion rate of the track. From the above, it is clear that the advanced technology does not provide a practical, high-speed, highly accurate method and corresponding device to measure the refractive index of the air and compensate the track.

After emitting from the light source 4 1 2, the light beam 4 2 6 is intercepted by the beam splitter 4 2 8 column. This sends a part of it to the interferometer 4 1 4 such as the light beam 430 and reflects a part such as the beam 432 to move. To beam splitter 4 3 4. Interferometer 4 1 4 can be any familiar type of amplitude split dispersion interferometer, such as Michelson, modified MIchelson, plane mirror, differential plane mirror interferometer, Mach-Zehnder, angle compensation, or other types familiar to those skilled in the art . The interferometer 4 1 4 is provided with a device not shown in FIG. 1 to divide the beam 4 3 0 as a reference and measure the beam, and move along the reference and measurement feet of the interferometer 4 1 4 (also not shown).

Although it is usually a fixed length, the reference foot does not need to be fixed, but can be changed, and it can also be partially occupied by gas. After moving along the reference and measuring feet of the interferometer 4 1 4, the interferometer 4 1 4 generates an output reference beam 4 3 6 and an output measurement beam 438 at two wavelengths. The beams 436 and 438 are intercepted by the beam splitter 440, which is separated according to the wavelength, and becomes the beams 4 8 and 4 50 at one wavelength to a detector 4 5 6 and the beam 4 4 2 at another wavelength.

Either or both the refractive index and measurement of the gas and the relative physical length of the reference path can be changed. In some end-use applications, the correction of gas effects in at least one of the measurement and the reference path is compensated to a specific accuracy by the effects of cyclic errors in the correction caused by the dispersion of the relevant signal. The specific accuracy is determined in part by the magnitude of the effect of the circular error in the measurement of the relative measurement and the length of the reference path at the respective wavelengths of the dispersion-related signal.

Description of the invention (19) No beam shaping optical device is needed. The ratio of the wavelengths (λ i / A 2) has a known approach ratio 値 I i / I 2, that is (λ1 / λ2) Ξ (/ i // 2), (1) where I 1 and I 2 include low-order Non-zero integer 値, or at least one non-integer non-zero 値 with low amplitude order. The X-polarized portions of the light beams 509 and 5 10 have an oscillation frequency that shifts an amount f 1 and f 2 to the y-polarized portions of the light beams 509 and 5 1 0, respectively. In addition, the frequency shift direction of the X part of the light beams 509 and 5 10 is the same. Those skilled in the art also understand that the frequency of both X and y polarized portions of beam 5 0 9 and / or beam 5 1 0 can be transferred without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and f 1 maintains beam 5 0 9 The difference between the frequencies of the X and y polarized portions' and f 2 maintains the difference between the frequencies of the X and y polarized portions of the beam 5 1 0. The isolation of the interferometer and laser light source can usually be enhanced by the frequency shift of the two X and y polarized parts of a beam. The degree of enhanced isolation depends in part on the device used to generate the frequency shift. In the next step, the light beam 5 0 9 is reflected by the mirror 5 5 3 A, and a part of it is reflected by the two-color non-polarized beam splitter 5 5 3 B to become a λχ part of the light beam 5 1 2. A part of the light beam 5 1 0 is transmitted by the two-color non-polarized beam splitter 5 5 3 Β, and becomes a second part of the light beam 5 1 2, a λ 2 part, wherein the λ 2 part is preferably the same as λ 1 part is parallel and within the same range. Secondly, the first part of the beam 5 1 2 is made by the non-polarized beam splitter.

Invention Description (20) 553C Transmission ' Become a light beam 5 1 3. The light beam 5 1 3 propagates to an interferometer 5 69, which is composed of an optical device for introducing a phase shift P i between the X and y polarization parts of the λ i part of the light beam 5 1 3, and A phase shift P 2 is between the X and y polarized portions of the λ 2 portion of the beam 5 1 3. In another step, a second part of the light beam 5 1 2 is reflected by the non-polarized beam splitter 553C, and thereafter is reflected by the mirrors 553D, 553E, 5 5 3 F, and 5 5 3 G. One part is reflected by the non-polarized beam splitter 5 5 3H and becomes the beam input to the monitor 5 50, and the second part is transmitted by the non-polarized beam splitter 5 5 3 Η and becomes the input to the monitor 5 5 2 of the beam. Monitors 5 5 0 and 5 5 2 are wavelength and Γ monitors, respectively. The Γ monitor 5 5 2 is shown in Figure 1a, such as the physical removal of the interferometer 5 6 9. In practice, this should be set close to at least one of the measurement occupied by the gas and the reference path. If there is an air flow with a known air flow pattern in the environment of the interferometer 5 6 9, it is also appropriate to place a Γ monitor 5 5 2 upstream, such as at least one of the measurement occupied by the gas and the reference path It is determined by the known air flow pattern. Moreover, the position of the Γ monitor 5 5 2 should be upstream of the source of pollution that will change the local 値 of Γ. For example, when the device of the present invention is part of a plate making system, a possible source of local contamination is the gas flowing out of the photoresist on the wafer during the exposure process. The phase shift amplitudes φ 1 and P 2 and the physical length of the measuring path 5 9 8 are related by the following formula% = LpkA , i = 1 R 2, (2) This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) I ----------- · Installation -------- Order --------- (Please read the precautions on the back before filling in this Page) -23- 477895 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7_ V. Description of the invention (21) where 'P is the number of different benchmarks and measuring feet passed through the interferometer, and ni is the gas being measured The refractive index in path 5 9 8 corresponds to the number of wavelengths = (2 7Γ) / Ai. Equation (2) contains the influence of gas only in measuring the path, and 俾 expresses the function of the present invention in the simplest way without departing from the scope and spirit of the present invention. Deductive equation (2) to cover the influence of the gas in the benchmark feet is a routine process for those skilled in the art. As shown in Figure 1a, the interferometer 5 6 9 includes a reference retroreflector 591, an object retroreflector 592 having a position controlled by a shifter 567, a quarter-wave phase retardation plate 5 7 7 and 5 7 8 and a polarized beam splitter 5 7 1. This structure is called a polarized Michelson interferometer in the art, and is simply displayed with ρ = 1. Equation (2) is valid in the case where the gas path of a beam with one wavelength and the path of a beam with a second wavelength are approximately in the same range, which is the simplest way to choose to display the invention Situation of its function. For those skilled in the art, the process of interpreting to the case where the respective beam paths with two different wavelengths are not approximately in the same range is a straightforward procedure. After passing through the interferometer 5 6 9, the portion of the beam 5 1 3 passing through the measurement path becomes the phase-shifted beam 5 3 3 and the portion of the beam 5 1 3 passing through the reference path including the back reflector 5 9 1 Become a phase-shifted beam 5 3 4. The measuring beam 5 3 3 and the reference beam 5 3 4 each cross the quarter-wave phase retardation plate 6 7 8 and 6 7 7 twice, and rotate the measurement and the polarization of the reference beam 90 °. The phase-shifted beams 5 3 3 and 5 3 4 are respectively orthogonally polarized to the plane and are in the plane of FIG. 1a. Ordinary two-color beam splitter 5 6 1 separates the light beams 5 3 3 corresponding to the wavelengths λ i and λ 2 These parts are the light beams The paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm ) I ----------- Shang -------- Order --------- (Please read the note on the back?

In the measurement path formed by the vacuum, the phase Φ should be approximately a constant and not affected by the Doppler frequency shift caused by the motion of the retroreflector 5 92. This may not be the case in practice because the group delays experienced by the heterodyne signals s: and s 2 are not the same.

If the phase Φ is not constant in the measurement path formed by the vacuum, a technique known to those skilled in the art can be used to compensate for the deviation between the phase Φ and the constant (refer to the above-mentioned Blinchikoff and Zverlv). It should be noted that the effect of group delay in Φ is not uniquely detectable, but can also be measured by Φ with different displacement speeds of the reflector 5 9 2 produced by the shifter 5 6 7 used as a measuring path containing a vacuum.

And it should be noted that the group delay effect in Φ can be greatly reduced as follows, as close as possible to the photodetectors in the detectors 5 8 5 and 5 8 6 to perform analog to digital conversion of the signals si and s 2 and then perform the digital signal Processing instead of sending the signals S i and S 2 of the analog signal for subsequent execution of analog signal processing and / or analog-to-digital conversion downstream.

The relative accuracy that can be determined is partly limited by cyclic errors, according to equation (1 5) (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) ψ / Ι 1 and 2 (24) Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs (25) For example, consider λι = 0 · 633Am, λι = 2 Input 2, p = 1, L = 0 · 5m, and an application in which the gas consists of air at 25 ° C and an atmospheric pressure, the contribution to the relative accuracy represented by equation (2 4) is 0 · 017 | Ψι | Ψ 1 is expressed in radians, and I Ψ 1 I indicates the absolute 値 of ψ 1. Continuing the example, the specific cyclic error at I Ψ 1 I = 0 · 1 radian, in this example -31-This paper size applies the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs Printed by the Employee Consumption Cooperative 477895 A7 B7 ___ V. Description of the invention (29) The cyclic error is equivalent to a cyclic error of a distance measurement of 5 nm in phase, and this specific cyclic error limits the relative measurable dispersion (η 2-ni) Accuracy to 0.2%. If the light source of a few beams is a NbYAG laser with Ai = 106 / zm, the corresponding limit of the relative accuracy of the measurable dispersion (ni-ns) is <0.5%. The limit of the influence of cyclic error on the relative accuracy of dispersion (η 2-η 1) can be directly propagated to the effect of cyclic error on the correction of the influence of the refractive index difference of the gas in the measurement path of the interferometer using the dispersion interferometer. limit. From the inspection equation (2 2), it is clear that the magnitude of the loop error contribution through Qv is ξΓ | | relative to the loop error contribution I Ψχ I entered through i i. In the case of λ1 = 0 · 6 3 3 ′ with λ1 = 2λ2 and λι = 1 0 6 2 // m which also has λι = 2 to 2, the 値 of Γ are 2 1 · 4 and 6 4 respectively. 6. Thus, if the effect of the cyclic error contribution caused by the correction term is equal to or lower than the effect of the cyclic error contribution directly caused by P χ, the cyclic error contributes to the equation for measuring the refractive index difference of the gas in the path The impact of the correction term in (2 2) needs to be reduced by about one and a half times. The spectrum of the cyclic nonlinearity Ψ i represented by P ^ and P2 can be based on orthogonal polynomials and functions of different families. Two examples are a series containing Fourier sine and cosine functions, and a series containing Chebyshev polynomial functions. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, the Fourier sine and cosine series spectrum representations of Ψi are used in the following embodiments, and in the first embodiment, such as: 32- This paper size is applicable to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 Specifications (210 X 297 mm) I. * Packing -------- Order --------- SI (Please read the note on the back?

In one or more of the interferometer structures, especially in the multi-pass interferometer, a system may include a light source, an interferometer, and a detector. The tester is used to generate the cyclic nonlinearity of the subharmonic frequency of ¢) t. If there is a subharmonic cyclic error in a system, expand equation (2 6) to include the cosine and sine series terms with subharmonic The independent variable of P i. The procedure used to determine the coefficients in the cosine and sine series will be described by the series expression mentioned in equation (2 6) without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Sources, interferometers, detectors, and digital signal processing systems may produce sub-harmonics or cyclic nonlinearities of harmonics that are not P ^. Non-sub-harmonic, non-harmonic cyclic errors such as those caused by digital signal processing Take the generated and have the sparse frequency of the harmonics of the P i and the sub-harmonics. If the non-sub-harmonics and non-harmonic cyclic errors appear in the system, expand the equation (2 6) to include the cosine and The sine series term has the extractor of the harmonics and / or subharmonics whose independent variables are P i. The series expressions mentioned in equation (2 6) are used to determine the cosine and sine series. The procedure of the coefficients does not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention. The frequency spectrum mentioned in equation (2 6) indicates that the interferometer whose phase of the heterodyne signal is changed at a substantially constant rate of change is generally effective. Equation (2 6) The coefficients of the mentioned spectrum representation are largely dependent on the phase change rate, for example, caused by the nature of the group delay encountered by the heterodyne signal (see the discussion of frequency-dependent group delay for Φ). -33- This paper standard applies China National Standard (CNS) A4 Specification (210 X 297 Mm) I ----------- install -------- order --------- S!

The normal value of Li is twice the spatial distance between the mirror surfaces 95 and 96 in the external mirror system 90 (see Figures 3d and 3e). . For those who are skilled in the art, the interpretation of the situation to pi # 2 P2 is a straightforward procedure.

The function of the device of the first preferred embodiment of the present invention that reduces the effect of the Doppler phase shift in the dispersion signal. Equation (4 7) The joint path at wavelength λ 5 and the joint path at wavelength λ 6 are approximately equal The situation in the range is valid. It is a straightforward procedure for those who are skilled in the art 'to interpret two joint paths with different wavelengths that are not approximately in the same range.

Description of the invention (56) The average time delay where the heavy and reference beams are mixed is different for the shorter wavelength λ 6 beam and longer wavelength; 15 or λ 5 A beams are generally not the same. The time delay difference is determined by the number of times the beam with the shorter wavelength passes multiple times. Caused by the different number of passes of a light beam with a longer wavelength. The effect of the difference in the average time delay of a light beam with a shorter and longer wavelength is omitted in equation (4 7). The light will not be overly complicated. The difference in the average time delay of the shorter and longer wavelength beams at different respective phases is a higher order effect, which is related to the speed of the mirror 9 2 of the external mirror system 90, Near L, the instantaneous average chirp is proportional to the respective heterodyne frequency. In the case of the moving speed of mirror 9 2 is 2m / s, the instantaneous mean chi of Li is 2m, and the heterodyne frequency is 2 0 Μ Η z , The respective phase difference is about 1 radian, and the change rate of the difference is about 1 radian / second. This change in phase difference occurs at a low frequency, which is usually lower than or at the level of 10 Η ζ. Those skilled in the art understand that the effect of this phase difference, the difference between the average time delay of the shorter and longer wavelength beams, can be determined by the speed of the mirror 9 2 and the near instantaneous average of Li in the subsequent signal processing. Your knowledge is modeled and compensated to the required accuracy imposed on the output data by the final application. In the next step, as shown in Fig. 3a, the beam 45 hits the detector 85, resulting in the difference signals s5 and S5A and two other heterodyne signals, and the beams 3 0 and 2 3 0 hits the photodetectors 8 6 and 2 8 6, resulting in two interference signals. The heterodyne signals s 6 and s 7 should be generated by photoelectric detection.丨 § Numbers 5 and S 5A are present at wavelengths λδ and λδA, respectively, and signals S 6 and S 7 correspond to wavelengths λ 6.

Those skilled in the art understand that the instantaneous change of the tilt and / or deflection of mirrors 9 1 and 92 The resulting phase effects of 3 and Φ can be modeled and compensated to the final application in the subsequent signal processing by the knowledge of the instantaneous tilt and / or deflection angular velocity of the mirror 9 1 or 9 2 and the instantaneous average of L i The required accuracy applied to the output data. The group delay effect may need to be taken into account. On a measuring path made of vacuum, the phase Φ should be approximately constant and not affected by the Doppler frequency shift caused by the movement of one or both of the mirrors in the external mirror system 90, which changes the separation distance of the mirrors. Since the group delays encountered by the electrical signals S5, S6, and S7 are not the same, this is not the case. If the phase Φ is not constant in the measurement path formed by the vacuum, the technology known to those skilled in the art can be used to compensate the deviation of the phase Φ from the constant (refer to the above-mentioned Blinchikoff and Zveriv). It can determine the effect of group delay including the measurement path of straight space, which is achieved by measuring Φ with different translation speeds of mirror 9 2 produced by translator 67.

The 値 calculated from the equivalent wavelength λ (1 / I 5) Φ can easily solve the phase duplication in (1 / I 5) Φ, because Equivalent wavelength λ (1 / I 5) of Φ値 is quite large. There are other procedures for performing applications that determine the refractive index and / or the length of the optical path due to the gas in the measuring foot, and the mirror 9 2 of the external mirror system does not have the scanning capabilities discussed in the previous paragraph.

The minimum or first round-trip physical length in this column is close to the relative accuracy divided by λ 5 / [4 (η 6 -ns)], and the initial 値 of (1 / I 5) Φ is known. The physical length of the second external mirror system 90 in this column is close to the physical length of the first external mirror system 90 divided by relative accuracy, and Φ is measured using the first external mirror system 90. This is a geometric series procedure. The physical length generated from the back and forth forms a geometric series. If the number of external mirror systems in the column is an increment, this series continues until it exceeds the refractive index in the optical path Up and down the physical length of the external mirror system that changes due to the refractive index of the gas. The third procedure is based on the use of a list of known wavelengths and a source of measurements Φ of these wavelengths (not shown in Figures 1a-1e). The number of known wavelengths required for phase repetition is roughly composed of a small group, because the λ (1 / I 5) Φ given by equation (70) is quite large. Another procedure to solve the phase repetition in (1 / I 5) Φ is when the measuring path 9 8 changes from gas to vacuum (the vacuum pump and the necessary gas processing system are not shown in Figures 1 a-1 e), Observe the change in (1 / I 5) Φ to solve the phase repetition in (1 / I 5) Φ. The problems usually encountered in measuring the refractive index and the length of the optical path due to the emissivity of the gas (partially changing from a non-zero pressure to a vacuum according to the gas pressure) do not exist in the first preferred embodiment. Because the equivalent wavelength of (1 / I 5) Φ is quite large. If necessary, the solution of the phase repetition in &amp; 5 is the same as the phase repetition of θ in the second and third embodiments of the present invention and its changes. -70-This paper size is applicable to Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) 1 · --- ί ------ ^^ 装 ------- -Order --------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling out this page) 477895 Printed by the Consumer Cooperatives of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs A7 B7 V.

Non-electronic contributions of Γ5 and Q can be monitored by pure electronic devices (not shown). Some people in the art know that since the beam splitter 65 is installed in the first preferred embodiment, the measurement diameters of the beams on λ5 and λ6 are in the same range of the external mirror system 90, so the dispersion of the gas can be Used as a measuring path ______-71-This paper size is applicable to China National Standard (CNS) A4 (210 X 297 mm) ----------- installation -------- order --------- (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) 477895 A7 B7 V.

Description of Invention (80) The rest of the discussion of the second modification of the third embodiment is the same as the corresponding part of the description mentioned in the third embodiment. The main advantages of the second modification of the third embodiment are the execution of important electronic processing steps, such as the decision to make at approximately the same frequency, at f 5 close to f 6, and the Doppler resulting from the translation of the mirror 9 2 of the external mirror system 90. The frequency shifts in s 5, s 6, and S 7 are approximately the same. The choice of the phases φ5χ6 and φ5χ7 on the frequencies of the upper heterodyne signals S 5, S 6, and s 7 is greatly reduced by having a significant difference in frequency difference. The possibility of different group delays encountered by the signal. The discussion of the effect of the group delay of the second modification of the third embodiment is the same as the corresponding part of the discussion of the third embodiment. The preferred second modification of the third embodiment of the present invention has been discussed in the previous paragraph, and the inherent advantages of the present invention will be made clearer by the following discussion. From the calculation of the refractive index difference of equation (5 5) and the calculation of the influence of the refractive index difference of the gas in the optical path of equation (4 ^ 6 2), it is clear that the phase θ and Φ determine the required accuracy and wave The numbers K and X are related. Because the frequency F can be much smaller than the frequency ν, and because it is usually easier to calculate the phase of lower frequency electronic signals with high resolution, it is usually best to rely on the highly accurate measurement of the sideband phase Φ obtained by superheterodyne . When the wave number K and X have an equation (6 4), this is easily achieved in the device of the present invention. Here, the refractive index difference is calculated by equation (5 5) or the light is calculated by equation (6 2). The influence of the refractive index difference of the gas on the path is almost completely independent of the sideband phase θ obtained by the superheterodyne. Moreover, the amplitude of the sideband phase Φ 'obtained by the superheterodyne is lower than the amplitude of the sideband phase 3 obtained by the superheterodyne, which is less affected by the approach represented by equation (6 5) (Π6 — Π5) / (Π6 + ΙΊ5) factor.

Description of the invention (81) Improve the accuracy of possible phase detection of moving objects, such as common in micro-plate equipment Encounter. Corresponding analysis and description are also applicable to the third embodiment and the first change of the third embodiment, in which the improvement of the phase detection accuracy of a moving object is approximately equal to the approach ratio 値 I 5 / I 6 may be a low-order non-zero The relative precision expressed by the ratio of the integers is proportional, all other factors being the same. Equation (6 6) also forms the basis of a * -term conclusion, that is, the light sources 1 and 2 do not require phase locking in the first modification of the first preferred embodiment. Looking at the phase lock requirements of light sources 1 and 2, equation (6 6) is really a weak condition. Considering, for example, the refractive index difference (η 5-1) of the measuring gas or the length of the optical path of the measuring foot due to the gas, a precision of X 1 0-6 is required, which is equivalent to about 1 X 1 0 in the distance measuring interferometer. — Relative distance severe precision of 9 '(Π5-1) = 3x10 4 and (Π6-ns) 2 1 X 1 0-5. For example, the condition represented by the equation (6 6) written with the light source frequencies V 5 and V 6 instead of the wavelengths λ 5 and λ 6 is 3 X ΙΟ &quot; 11 v6. In the case of the light source wavelength and p integer in the visible part of the spectrum, equation (9 2) is transformed into the condition "30 kHz (92) lower order (93) equation (9 3). Light sources 1 and 2 are far less restrictive than the phase lock condition.

Invention Description (82) 9 8. Through the differential plane mirror interferometer from the even number of beams, the propagation direction of the beam leaving the measuring foot and the corresponding propagation direction of the beam leaving the reference foot are not affected by any of the mirrors in the external mirror system 90, especially the tilt or deflection of the mirror 92. The effect is that only one of the leaving beams has some side shearing force on the other leaving beams. In the distance measurement interferometer, the element performing the function of the mirror 9 2 has an equivalent translation, but does not produce an equivalent tilt or deflection. The differential planar mirror interferometer of the first embodiment and its modification can be constructed with an even or odd integer. P 6, usually reduces the number of passes required twice, while maintaining the characteristics of the first embodiment and its changes. This reduction in the required pass factor of two can result in a greatly simplified optical system. For example, the differential plane mirror interferometer shown in Figs. 3a-3e can be replaced by a differential plane mirror interferometer with P5 = 2 and p6 = 1, while maintaining the features of the third embodiment and its changes, and shown and explained in more detail in (2) The differential plane mirror interferometer related to the second embodiment and its modification in the "Apparatus and Method for Measuring the Essential Optical Properties of Gases" in the United States Patent Application 09/2 3 2,5 1 5 pending approval, and The accompanying signal processing is similar. As mentioned earlier, the contents of the above application are examples. Referring now to FIG. 4, this is a generalized flowchart showing the various steps for performing the method of the present invention through blocks 8 0—8 2 8 to measure and monitor the refractive index difference and / or the diameter of the gas in the path. The optical path length of the road is changed due to the gas, wherein the refractive index difference of the gas can be changed and / or the physical length of the measuring path can be changed. Although it is obvious that the method of the invention shown in FIG. 4 can be performed without using the above-mentioned device of the present invention, and those skilled in the art understand that this can also be performed by other devices than those described. For example, it is clear that it is not necessary to use an interferometer such as that used in the preferred embodiment, but that the paper size can be adapted to the Chinese National Standard (CNS) A4 specification (210 X 297 mm) I, ---''---- --- Install -------- Order --------- * 5 ^^ &quot; (Please read the notes on the back before filling this page) -85- 477895 A7 B7 V. Invention Instruction (83) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) For ordinary interferometer devices, as long as the required reference and measuring feet are available. Obviously, homodyne or heterodyne can be used. It can be further understood that many of the steps in FIG. 4 can be performed by appropriate software running on a general-purpose computer, or by a microprocessor of an appropriate program, any of which can be used to control other components of the system as needed. As shown in Fig. 4, starting from block 800, two or more light beams' are provided with different wavelengths, and these should preferably have approximately harmonic relationships, as previously described. At block 802, the split beam is divided into parts. At block 804, these are preferably changed by polarization or spatial codes, or frequency shifting, or both. In other cases, the beam can simply be left unchanged and pass through to block 806. As shown in boxes 8 2 2 and 8 2 4, the wavelength and / or wavelength relationship of the beam can be monitored, and if the wavelength is not within the limits discussed previously, [1 can take corrective measures to compensate for the relationship between wavelength and wavelength Or the deviation of the desired relationship from the wavelength itself. This deviation can be used to provide feedback to control the wavelength of the light speed source, or corrections can be established and used in subsequent calculations affected by the deviation, or the two methods can be combined. Printed by the Consumer Cooperative of the Intellectual Property Bureau of the Ministry of Economic Affairs in parallel with or simultaneously with the light beam generated in block 800, and as shown in block 8 26, a displacement measuring interferometer with two feet, a reference foot and another measuring foot is provided. Among them, a part of the measuring path is in the gas, the refractive index difference and / or the effect of the optical path length of the measuring foot is the desired measurement, and an interferometer is used to measure and monitor the nature of the selected gas Light characteristics: As shown in boxes 8 06 and 8 08, the previously generated light beams are introduced into the respective interferometer feet, and each part is based on its movement through its index. This paper applies Chinese national standards.

Description of the invention (84) The length of the optical path encountered in the physical length of the fixed leg, shifting the phase. After the light beam comes out of the block 8 0 8, these are combined in the block 8 1 0 to generate a mixed optical signal. These mixed optical signals are then sent to the force block 8 1 2, where the corresponding electrical signals are generated by light detection, which should be external signals, and these electrical signals include the phase relationship between the various beam parts. Information. The electrical signal should preferably be a heterodyne signal generated by a previous frequency transfer process. At block 8 1 4, the electrical signal can be directly analyzed to extract the relative phase information, and then this can be transmitted to block 8 1 6-8 2 0, or a superheterodyne signal can be generated, and then the relative phase information is divided. At block 8 1 6, any phase ambiguity in homodyne, heterodyne, and / or superheterodyne should preferably be resolved by the means and calculations described in the previous description of the preferred embodiment. At block 8 1 8, the cyclic errors and wavelength corrections are compensated as previously determined. At block 8 2 0, calculate the effect of the gas refractive index difference and / or the gas refractive index difference on the optical path length of the measurement path and add corrections, as described above, and generate an output signal for subsequent downstream applications or data formats demand. Here, if the change or change rate of the essential light property exceeds a predetermined limit, it can be changed. Finally, at block 8 2 8, calculate the corrected displacement. Those skilled in the art can make other changes to the device and method of the present invention without departing from the scope of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments shown and described are intended to be illustrative and not limiting. The above-mentioned interferometers can be used in plate-making applications (such as those shown in Figure 6 and 7), used to manufacture large integrated circuits, such as computer chips.

The wafer contains a contrast agent mark on the wafer. This can be measured by a dedicated sensor. The position of the measured contrast agent mark defines the position of the wafer in the tool. This information together with the wafer table The specifications of the required pattern on the guide wafer are aligned with the spatial pattern rays. According to this information, one of the wafers supporting the photoresist coating can be moved by a translation platform, and the chirped rays expose the correct position of the wafer. During the exposure, The light source illuminates the patterned mesh, and the scattered rays are used to generate spatial pattern rays. The mesh is also called a mask, and the following two terms can be used interchangeably. In the case of reducing the plate making, a lens set is used to reduce scattered rays, Form a reduced image of one of the mesh patterns. Or, in the case of near printing, the scattered rays travel a small distance (usually at the micrometer level), and then contact the wafer to produce a 1: 1 image of the mesh pattern.

Any one of the embodiments described in the description of the invention (88). During operation, a ray beam 6 1 0, such as an ultraviolet (UV) beam from a u V laser (not shown), passes through a beam shaping light assembly 6 1 2 ′ and is reflected by a mirror 6 1 4. Move down. Thereafter, the beam of rays passes through a mask (not shown) carried by a mask platform 6 16. A mask (not shown) passes through the lens assembly 6 0 8 carried in the lens box 6 06 on a wafer (not shown) of the wafer platform 6 2 2. The base 604 and the various components supported by it are automatically isolated from the environment by a damping system shown by a spring 620.

Description of the Invention (89) As is familiar in the art, 'platemaking' is an important part of the manufacturing method used to manufacture semiconductor devices. For example, U.S. Patent No. 5,4 8 3,3 4 3 describes the steps of this manufacturing method. These steps are described below with reference to Figs. 5b and 5c. FIG. 5b is a flowchart of a sequence of manufacturing a semiconductor device, such as a semiconductor wafer (eg, IC or L S I), a liquid crystal panel, or C C D. Step 6 51 is a design process for designing a circuit of a semiconductor device. Step 6 5 2 is a process for manufacturing a mask according to the circuit pattern design. Step 6 5 3 is a process for manufacturing a wafer, using a material such as sand. Step 6 54 is wafer processing, and this is called pre-processing, in which a circuit is fabricated on the wafer by using the mask and the wafer thus prepared, through plate-making. Step 6 5 5 is a combination step, which is called post-processing, in which a semiconductor wafer is formed from the wafer processed in step 6 5 4. This step consists of combining (cutting and bonding) and packaging (wafer sealing). Step 6 5 6 is an inspection step ', in which an operation check, a durability check, and the like are performed on the semiconductor device manufactured in step 6 5 5. With these processes, the semiconductor device is completed and shipped (step 657). Figure 5c is a flowchart showing the details of wafer processing. Step 6 6 1 is an oxidation treatment to oxidize the surface of the wafer. Step 6 6 2 is a C V D process for manufacturing an insulating film on the surface of the wafer. Step 6 6 3 is an electrode formation process for manufacturing an electrode on a wafer by vapor deposition. Step 6 64 is an ion implantation process for implanting ions into the wafer. Step 6 6 5 is a photoresist treatment for applying a photoresist (photosensitive material) to the wafer. Step 6 6 is an exposure process for printing the circuit pattern of the mask on the wafer through the exposure device described above. Step 6 6 7 is the size of the paper.

Description of the invention (9〇) Photo processing for developing exposed wafers. Step 6 6 8 is an etching process ′ to remove a part other than the developed photoresist image. Step 6 6 9 is a photoresist separation process for separating the photoresist material remaining on the wafer after the uranium etching process. By repeating these processes, a circuit pattern is formed and superimposed on the wafer. The above-mentioned interferometer system can also be used in other applications, in which the relationship between objects needs to be accurately measured. For example, in applications where a writing beam, such as a laser, X-ray 'ion, or an electron beam moves on a substrate or a ray beam, marks a pattern on the substrate, an interferometer system can be used to measure the substrate and write between the beams. Relative movement. For example, a 'required beam writing system 700 display. Shown in Figure 6. A light source 7 1 0 generates a writing beam 7 1 2 and a beam focusing assembly 7 1 4 directs the beam of rays onto a substrate 7 1 6 supported by a movable platform 7 1 8. To determine the relative position of the platform, an interferometer system 7 2 0 guides a reference beam 7 2 2 to a mirror 7 2 4 placed on the beam focusing assembly 7 1 4 and a measuring beam 7 2 6 to the platform 7 1 8 One of the mounted mirrors 7 2 8. The interferometer system 7 2 0 may be any of the foregoing interferometer systems. The change in the position measured by the interference rf system is equivalent to the change in the relative position of the writing beam 7 1 2 on the substrate 7 1 6. The interferometer system 720 sends a measurement signal 732 to the controller 730, which indicates the relative position of the writing beam 7 1 2 on the substrate 7 1 6. The controller 7 3 0 sends an output signal 7 3 4 to a base 7 3 6 to support and set the platform 7 1 8. In addition, the controller 7 3 sends a signal 7 3 8 to the light source 7 1 0 to change the intensity of the writing beam or block the writing beam 7] _ 2.

Description of the invention (91) (Please read the precautions on the back before filling this page) 俾 The writing beam contacts the substrate with sufficient intensity, so that only the selected location of the substrate causes photophysics or photochemistry change. Moreover, in some embodiments, the controller 7 30 can, for example, use the signal 7 4 4 to cause the beam focusing component 7 1 4 to scan the writing beam on an area of the substrate. As a result, the controller 730 guides the other components of the system to make a pattern on the substrate. The design of this pattern is usually based on the electronic design pattern stored in the controller. In some applications, the writing beam creates a photoresist pattern coated on the substrate, and in other applications, the writing beam directly forms the substrate pattern, such as etching the substrate. One of the important applications of this system is the manufacture of masks and nets, which are used in the above-mentioned plate making methods. For example, in the manufacture of plate-making masks, a pattern of a chrome-coated glass substrate can be made using an electron beam. In the case where the writing beam is an electron beam, the beam writing system surrounds an electron beam path in a vacuum. Moreover, in the case where the writing beam is, for example, an electron or ion beam, the beam focusing component includes an electric field generator, such as a quadrupole lens, to focus and guide the charged particles on the substrate under vacuum. In the case where the writing beam is a ray beam, such as X-ray, UV, or visible rays, the ray beam focusing component includes a corresponding optical device for focusing and guiding the ray to the substrate.

For example, in some applications it may be necessary to monitor the interferometer reference and measure the refractive index of the gas contained in the foot. Examples include familiar pillar reference patterns for interferometers, where the reference foot includes a target optical device placed at a location in a mechanical system, and the measuring foot includes a target optical device placed at a different location in the same mechanical system. . Another application is related to the measurement of small angles.
